+There is a simpler mechanism provided by Saveplace library which records
+your position in each file when you kill its buffer (or kill Emacs), and
+jumps to the same position when you visit the file again (even in
+another Emacs session).  Use @key{M-x toggle-save-place} to turn on
+place-saving in a given file.  Customize the option @code{save-place} to
+turn it on for all files in each session.
